Hey Geoff---IMO it's that the bass dampers (and probably others) have a hard crust on them, and are making that noise as the damper slips back toward the surface of the strings. You need to soften the surface of those dampers, by needling and light sanding; soften them up; I've always called this condition "oinking dampers." Happens all the time. Learn how now, so you can be a hero in a crucial recording situation down the road..... David Andersen -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
